.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I fairland
|
|
is a program which creates land and ore for Empire. It
|
|
should be run after
|
|
.I files
|
|
has been run and before
|
|
.I emp_server
|
|
has been started. This is a land generator for empire that creates a
|
|
specified number of continents, and spaces them evenly accross the
|
|
map. It tries to make all of them the same size, and makes sure that
|
|
they don't meet. It gives each start island exactly the same
|
|
distribution of resources and the same number of mountains. You can
|
|
get nearly any kind of map you want by choosing the right arguments.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-a
|
|

|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-i
|
|
islands will crash into each other and merge
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-o
|
|
do not set the resources. If you use this flag, then you will need to
|
|
run some other program (for example the
|
|
.I ore
|
|
program) to set the resources.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-q
|
|
run quietly without printing anything to the terminal
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-s\ scriptout
|
|
writes a script for placing capitol to the file
|
|
.I scriptout
|
|
(If you don't specify this argument, then the script will be written
|
|
to "newcap_script".)
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-e\ configfile
|
|

|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-R\ seed
